Description

This third, completely revised edition contains hundreds of new entries for a total of almost 2,000 children's books and magazines carefully selected and described by a team of children's librarians. Entries are arranged by subject, with reading levels indicated where necessary, and are also listed in a separate author-title index. A list of prize-winning Canadian children's books and a basic book list for librarians, teachers, and parents are included in this charmingly illustrated volume.
